Projects

Your initial project is automatically generated when you create your account. You can establish multiple projects to organize different groups of IoT assets based on your requirements. Each project stores its IoT assets along with relevant information, such as templates, devices, sensors, network profiles, automation rules, integrations, and member management.

Project Components

Your first project “default” is automatically created when you sign up for a Ctrl account. This is the project home page. Below are the components of a project:

  • Settings: Name your project, pick a colour, and change the time zone if needed.

  • Set-up: Overview of your project set-up, from connected assets to configured workflows.

  • Project Dashboard: Create a centralized view of devices under the same project.

  • Device Templates: Manage device templates to scale up your deployment and maintenance.

  • Menu Bar: Quick links to configure each Ctrl building block.
